I’m very curious about how that improved understanding would come about via grantmaking. Any write-up you have about this? I can see how you’d learn about tractability, and maybe about neglectedness, but I wonder how you incorporate this in your decision-making.
Anyway, this might go a little too off-topic so I’d understand if you replied to other questions first :)

I’m referring to the possibility of supporting academics (e.g. philosophers) to propose and explore different approaches to moral uncertainty and their merits and drawbacks. (E.g., different approaches to operationalizing the considerations listed at https://www.openphilanthropy.org/blog/update-cause-prioritization-open-philanthropy#Allocating_capital_to_buckets_and_causes , which may have different consequences for how much ought to be allocated to each bucket)
